Bald Eagle Mountain Moving Out Procedures

| Move-In Procedures | Move-Out Procedures | Payments/Security Deposits | House Rules  |

All students that have not arranged for summer housing must be out by May 15.  If you remain on the property after that time, you will be charged $50.00 for each day you remain.  You must be out on time unless we have given permission otherwise.

Do not remove any telephone jacks or cable wires, even if you installed these yourself.  Once these are installed they become a fixture of the property and cannot be removed

Remove all garbage from the house and put in garbage bags in designated area.  Clean your refrigerator, cupboards, cabinets and closets completely.  Please do not leave any of your belonging behind unless you are renting the same room or apartment for next year.  In that case, you can leave any non-perishable items you want, as long as they are neatly stored in your private bedroom, so that we can clean.  Do not leave boxed foods; canned only.  You are leaving all items at your own risk.

Do not attempt to fix anything that you have broken i.e. windows, railings, doors etc.  You will be charged to have these fixed.

Remember how your apartment looked when you moved in.  That is what it should look like when you move out.  If you removed anything from your room please return it to where it belongs.  Please remember that any damages existing before you moved in should have been listed on your move-in and submitted at that time. 

Return ALL keys to Bald Eagle Mountain Housing with your name and property address attached to them .  You will be charged for any keys not returned.  Bald Eagle Mountain Housing will not be responsible for any keys left behind in the residence.  Keys must be returned to the office, during normal business hours, in order for you to receive credit for them.

If you brought your own furniture; you must take this home with you or arrange to have it hauled away.  We do not pay for removal of unwanted furniture.

It takes close to four weeks to get all the security deposit returned.  If you do not get a notice within this time, please call me.  For those of you that are having deposits rolled over you will receive your notices, but no refund.  Please note that just because your deposit is rolled over; it does not mean that you won’t be charged for any damages or monies owed from the year.  If it is found that you have substantial monies due against the security deposit from this year; you may have to put another deposit down for next year. 

Do not patch holes in walls or paint.

Please do not take anything that does not belong to you.

Lift, do not drag, anything across the floors.  Any previous damage to the floors should have been submitted at move in.

Thank you for all your time in making sure your apartment is nice for the next students.
